Coronation Street: Another Shocking Abuse Allegation Rocks Theo as Todd Reels
Coronation Street has delivered another disturbing twist in the Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) storyline, with Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) left shaken after learning that Theo’s abusive behaviour may not be limited to him.
Trouble on Canal Street
Todd joined Theo and their neighbours for a lively night out on Canal Street. At first, Todd was surprised by Theo’s willingness to attend, but it wasn’t long before the cracks began to show.
Theo grew irritated when James Bailey (Jason Callender) jokingly flirted with Todd. But the night took a darker turn when Theo came face to face with Owen (Dominic Vulliamy), his ex-boyfriend.
Owen Confronts Theo
The tension between Theo and Owen was instant. Theo tried to shut down the encounter quickly, but Owen refused to be silenced.
He openly accused Theo of mistreating him during their relationship, explaining that it was only through his current partner’s support that he had recognised Theo’s behaviour as abusive.
Owen told him bluntly that conversion therapy wasn’t an excuse for cruelty: “That was all down to you.”
But Theo denied everything, flipping the story back onto Owen and insisting he was the manipulative one.
Theo Turns on Todd
Later, Todd stumbled across a photo of Theo and Owen together on Theo’s phone — undeniable proof that Owen wasn’t just a random stranger.
When Todd questioned him, Theo lashed out, accusing Todd of snooping and being controlling. He then admitted Owen was his ex but twisted the story, painting himself as the victim once again.
Things grew even more toxic when Theo turned the focus back on Todd, accusing him of flirting with James at the club. When Todd defended himself, Theo cruelly announced he was going on a solo night out — ditching the dinner plans Todd had arranged.
The Manipulation Deepens
With Todd now caught in a cycle of guilt, denial, and twisted accusations, viewers are left questioning: will he see through Theo’s manipulation before it’s too late?
The fact that Owen has confirmed Theo’s abusive behaviour suggests a dangerous pattern — and Todd may not be the last person to get hurt.
